AR you seeing this on the Clyde Road Upgrade

Back to Newsfeed

To make the job of relocating underground utilities safer and more efficient, we’ve enlisted the help of Augmented Reality (AR) on the Clyde Road Upgrade and a number of our other road projects.

No longer is this immersive technology reserved for video games, it’s become a regular feature on our projects for its ability to create a 3D model showing where underground services are located – which can be viewed on a smartphone, tablet, or virtual reality headset.

Having a clear picture of where these utilities are located in real-time reduces the risk of unplanned outages during construction, brings down costs, reduces the need for digging and improves our decision making.

The combination of advanced utility locating techniques, 3D modelling, and real-time AR integration represents a huge advancement in underground service management, bringing both practical and safety benefits to our projects and the broader community.

We're upgrading Clyde Road between Enterprise Avenue and the Princes Freeway, adding an additional lane in each direction, and upgrading the intersections at Clyde Road and Kangan Drive, and Clyde Road and the Princes Freeway.

The upgrade will:

  • provide more reliable travel times along Clyde Road in the Berwick area
  • improve traffic flow and access to local facilities and streets
  • make it easier and safer to walk and cycle along Clyde Road
  • improve street lighting and landscaping
  • improve safety and reduce the risk of crashes with upgraded intersections and additional lanes.
